The results data of the IPC Historical Results Archive is based on
information contained/ sourced in the original hardcopy final
results publications. Some information from earlier Paralympic Games
(i.e. 1960-1988) such as relay and team members are not presented
in these source. Therefore, final results, medal standings and
derived statistics may not be complete. If you encounter any inaccuracies
or errors, please do not hesitate to send a message to
sdmsadmin[at]paralympic[dot]org with the details and proving materials.

Important note on the definition of participants:
Only athletes that appear in the official results books in the section of final results
are included in the database and counted towards participant statistics. Data for 2014
and 2016 are accurate. Statistics for previous Games editions are under review.

Important note on competition partners:
Competition partners eligible for medals are included in the combined participant
statistics until 2014. Statistics for 2016 and beyond consider
athletes with an impairment and their competition partners separately.
If you need participant statistics for athletes with
an impairment only, please contact us at sdmsadmin[at]paralympic[dot]org.
